Eemax Electric tankless Water Heater

10-03-2009, 12:50 PM

This was a neighbor's electric tankless WH. This one replaced a leaker. This one let all of the factory installed smoke out.

Everytime they drew hot water all the lights in the house pulsed with the draw of 50 amps heating the element. A truly fine piece of equipment. Good thing the smoke alarm went off and someone was home to hear it.

the one I replaced was a 110 unit, replaced with a 220, because they couldn't get warm enough water at the kitchen sink it was supposed to service. They haven't called back to ask me to install something different yet, but I can't imagine it will do what they want it to do.

You will know this winter when the incomming water temperature will hit bottom

I'm trying to remember the new Electric tankless water heater I saw at the last trade show I went to in OKC... It was the best built unit I have ever seen! I wish I could remember the name...

Found it "Skye" Electric Tankless

I was really impressed with these... Anybody dealt with this company / product yet?

I wired up a Skye Fortis a couple of months ago for a customer. #2 gauge wire 120 amps. the unit cost about $2200 plus install. It was really well built, has a 16mhz processor, a usb port for firmware upgrades and a built in flush valve.
